ChargePoint Holdings (NYSE: CHPT) shares jumped as much as 4.4% Tuesday morning after it announced a new agreement with a large automaker.

As of 10:54 a.m. ET, the stock was still down 0.6%.

The deal is aimed to make it easier for consumers who are looking at buying the upcoming Lexus RZ 450e to get access to fast charging both at home and on the road.
